Over my many years of experience testing, failing, launching and relaunching my business ideas, I’ve found that there are some key elements to finding success with your growing business. Equip yourself with these strategies, designed to guide you through the bustling marketplace and help you serve up a feast of actualization.

If you’re dying to escape the professional trap you find yourself in. If you have a business idea that you are itching to start. Or, you just want more flexibility with your family, I’m excited to share some of what I’ve learned as a woman business owner, and mompreneur with over ten years of experience starting businesses, failing at businesses, and getting back up to try again.

Just the word “change” used to make my skin crawl. Alright, who am I kidding? It still does. You have no doubt heard the age-old saying that “nothing is constant but change.” As much as I hate to admit it, I have repeatedly been on the receiving end of this valuable yet challenging and often painful truth over my forty-two, almost forty-three years.

Feeling bogged down—whether it's steering through career decisions, balancing family life, or just trying to remember what fun looks like without a screen—can seem daunting. But fear not, I have some strategies that might just help us not only survive but maybe even thrive during these times:

This past month was all about the adventure of summer, new places, people, and things we fell in love with—and big surprise… I want to share it with you!

Are you more of the staycation type or big-time-summer adventurer? Perhaps you're lugging along a troup of kids or vacationing with your sweetheart.

Whether you're the bootstrap tent-camping type or big resort type, here's the official Womanhood Unwrapped roundup for the remainder of summer – complete with highlights tailored especially for the superhero working women and moms out there.

Let's get real for a moment. Being a woman in business isn't all power suits and corner offices (though, let's be honest, a good blazer never hurt anyone).

When I started my first business, I had no idea what I was doing (I still don't half the time!). Because of that, I learned a lot of hard lessons and did things wrong in various ways.

Business ownership is a journey—a rollercoaster filled with highs that make you feel invincible and lows that have you questioning your life choices over a pint of ice cream at 3 AM. But fear not—every twist and turn on this wild ride comes with a lesson or two, and I'm here to spill the tea. Buckle up, boss babes; this one's for you.

Our mental well-being influences how we think, feel, and behave in daily life. It affects our ability to cope with stress, overcome challenges, build relationships, and recover from life's setbacks and hardships. Just like physical health, mental health requires regular maintenance and care. I had to learn this the hard way, but taking care of your mind can be smoothly integrated into your life if you try.

Let's explore practical steps to nurturing your mind, including mindfulness practices, stress management techniques, and strategies for fostering a positive mindset.

It’s always struck me as odd that there’s a cultural expectation that people will find the career they want by the time they are eighteen years old and will stay in that profession for their whole working life!

I mean, if you look at your other choices and changes throughout life, it’s kind of silly, right?

If you're considering a new business or career, this post is for you! I’m here to inspire you with the top business ideas for women in 2024.

If you’re a woman turning forty-two-years-old soon, you’ve already crossed the threshold into your mid-forties, or you’re just curious and planning for the future, here are some of the ways I’m striving to live a fulfilled and fabulous life at forty-two years old.

Jill Rose is an experienced life coach and owner of Jill Rose Coaching. She works with women to help them reclaim their joy. And Jill truly is a joy to know. Additionally, “life coach” really doesn’t fully express what I feel makes Jill such an incredible woman leader, business owner, and mother. But instead of me blabbering on, let’s get to the interview!

This year, we’ve collected our favorite products and gift ideas for the women in your life, so you don’t have to go hunting all over the place for the perfect gifts.

Here it is, The Womanhood Unwrapped Holiday Gift Guide for Your Favorite Women. Or, as we like to say, the Ultimate WU (Womanhood Unwrapped) Girl. 😘

Isn’t it just time to start feeling better, happier, and more fulfilled?

Well, yes, I think it is! Here are my six revelations and practices that have made my journey to discovering and keeping myself in a state of self-love. I hope these inspire you. 🤍

Instead of resolutions, I believe that you need a plan. And not just any plan, not some loosey-goosey list of high faluting things you’ll never accomplish, or a gushy statement of acceptance that is actually just stunting your growth. I mean a real personal strategic plan that looks at your accomplishments, strengths, weaknesses, and realistic goals for the new year. Will you accomplish all of your pursuits in one year? Likely not, and that’s OKAY! A well-thought-out personal strategic plan isn’t about pressure or dooming yourself for failure; it gives you an incremental path from point A, where you are, to point B, where you want to be. And at the end of this year, if you sit down and create this personal roadmap again for your life, I will bet you that you’ll be amazed at how far you’ve come!

It’s not every day I get to interview a woman-owned philanthropist and winemaker. Dani of Dani Gold Wines is a mom, wife, owns a wine company, and loves to give back to the world and her community. Read her interview now.

When you meet Jessica Sturzenegger, CEO and cofounder, Amara Organic Baby Food, you’re immediately struck by her positive and warm personality, as well as her clear passion for health and wellness that can be delivered through food. Here is her story on the Entreprenista Mama blog.

What first drew me to the Caden sisters. Sisterpeneurs and founders of Belly Bandit and Proof created two mission-based companies. Their mission: to design garments and underwear for women tired of feeling insecure after giving birth, wanting to be confident in the face of unexpected leaks, and needing to feel good about their bodies. Both companies were the product (no pun intended) of real-life challenges!

Jodi, Cari, and Lori are breaking barriers that often hold women hostage and doing it together!

New year’s resolutions can create a love-hate internal tug of war. Let’s stop that vicious cycle in 2021, and support ourselves by creating loving, transparent, and trusting intentions, goals, and resolutions. Read the full blog with interviews from 10 different women, and more!

I'm the first to overthink things. I'm the first to run through all the scenarios, possible pitfalls, and potential positive or negative outcomes. But as a woman, who's also a mother, wife, and serial entrepreneur, I had to learn early in the launch of my first business, a super challenging lesson. It’s all about perfectionism, and when to let go. Read more on the blog.

Here’s how I’ve learned to manage anxiety as a mom. If you suffer from anxiety and have not sought help yet, I sincerely hope you will begin with that step. But either way, I hope my experience and the following ideas help bring a glimmer of hope to your life or someone else's that may need to read this.

This month, I connected (remotely) with Margaret Cascio. A veteran in the hospitality and tech industries, a mother, a full-time career woman, and a social advocate to discuss how she is persisting during this time and finding ways to flourish and adapt. Here is her story.
